So true! The "chromosome crowd" drives me mad. They learnt this simplified version in middle school and now they can't accept that actual biology is a lot more complicated. There are so many different chromosomal combinations, a lot of which aren't distinguishable by the naked eye from what we consider "normal", ie. XX and XY. For example XYY symptoms are above average height, acne prone skin and learning difficulties. Just off the top of my head I can name multiple individuals I know who might have it, or each of those symptoms can just be caused by something else.
The "gender = XX or XY" people use chromosomes as the end all be all because they don't want to admit they're just judging people by what they look like, which would make then have to admit gender is at least in part performative and not set in stone.

@garlog I see your point but tbh if someone calls me ugly right after being rejected by me, the only emotional impact it'll give me is a fit of laughter.

Tbh I found TLOU2 ending to be pretty good and fitting the plot and characters. Not gonna spoil it here but this is just about the only case where I didn't get the "oh THIS annoying trope" moment because it just, idk, fit with the context? Plus the scene at the very end, oh man, I actually cried.

Yup yup, that's EXACTLY how my PC acted before it died and I had to get a new motherboard and CPU. Literally took minutes to react to a click, with only one browser tab opened. I was only lucky I had my tablet with school files synced with Google Drive, otherwise I wouldn't be able to turn in assignments. So on the flip side, chances are you won't even have to stage an "accident", it will probably soon die on its own. That said old Lenovos have surprisingly good endurance so who knows.

Thank you for the recommendation! I know it's a very popular book and it's definitely on my to-read list but I haven't got to it yet.
